The Vodafone Play Live Top 10: 12th January 2009

If there’s one force more powerful than Tetris in the mobile gaming universe it’s television, as this week’s chart clearly demonstrates. The almighty Russian puzzler has lost its throne to Noel Edmonds, and Jeremy Clarkson is hot on its tail with Top Gear: The Mobile Game.

Long time mobile gamers may be confused by the reappearance of Deal or No Deal, but fear not: this latest TV game from EA Mobile is far better than Gameloft’s effort before it. Not only can you play as a contestant this time, but you can adopt the enigmatic role of The Banker in an effort to send the hopefuls away with as little cash as possible.

Much better fun, I’m sure you’ll agree.
